Storage and Handling:
-
Preservation: Keep membrane elements sealed and moist to prevent damage. Elements are vacuum-sealed in a polyethylene oxygen barrier bag containing preservative and packaged in a cardboard box.
-
First Use: Discard the permeate from the first twenty-four hours of operation and avoid using the first full tank of permeate for drinking or food preparation.
-
Temperature Impact: Permeate flow varies with feed water temperature; refer to a Temperature Correction Chart for adjustments.
-
Storage Conditions: Prevent elements from freezing or exposure to direct sunlight.
Operation Notes:
-
Initial Use: Discard permeate water obtained during the first hour of use.
-
Moisture Maintenance: Keep elements moist after initial wetting.
-
Prolonged Shutdowns: Immerse elements in a preservative solution to prevent biological growth, and rinse out the preservative before use.
-
Chemical Compatibility: The OEM is responsible for the effects of incompatible chemicals and lubricants on the membrane elements.
